Huh? There’s plenty of gravity on Mars. It’s a lot stronger than on the moon and you saw that the astronauts there could only hop.
Pure technicality. Comics don’t quibble about accuracy.
For some reason, the Martians devolution ray had no effect on Ernie!
Actually, I think Ernie is appreciating the gravity of the situation – how much less there gravity is – how much less he weighs, how much higher he can jump, and how much more slowly he falls.
Go for it, Ernie! How many chances are you going to get?
Ernie is nailing the floor exercises.

next Ernie will bring out his golf clubs… “Fore”……..!
About 1/3 of Earth’s
I can’t wait for us to land on one of the really big planets.
The mode of walking on the moon had less to do with gravity than the restrictive nature of the pressure suit.
Whee! Another leap for mankind.

ernie’s got david bowie playing on his music player, too…
Next time bring a colorist along.
Mars gravity is 38% of Earth’s.
